Journal #47 American Lit. Sites

My experience on the American Literature sites has been kind of a mixed result so far. At first it was very confusing, having not known what exactly I had to do for this project, where to get to get that information for this project, and also how we were supposed to present that project in our website. I think at first my other group members of Jenna and Atlee had a way better handle on this project than I did, but now I think that I have caught up to them and I think that I have got a pretty decent handle of what is going on. This project is not exactly hard I would say, but it is a lot of work. Analyzing ten poems is going to be a lot of work for our group to get all completed by when this project is due on March 31. I do like how we have some time in class to work though, because of learning something new we can direct all of our focus onto this project and Emily Dickinson, that being the best possible way to produce the best results on this website. I also have greatly enjoyed working with my group. The other people in my group are really nice, and I think that overall we work together pretty nicely. We all seem to have the same ideas about things, and seem to all be on the same page about this project. I have to do a PowerPoint about Emily Dickinson’s writing style, and I think that I found all the information that I needed to, to cover all the areas of her writing that need to be covered. Also, as a group we are all starting to work on analyzing her poems in class so we can all do it together. Overall, I think that now that I understand all the concepts of this project it has become a lot easier to me.
